Global Health Hub Symposium

21/09/23

The Global Health Unit kindly invites you to the Global Health Hub Groningen Symposium. Key topics are major Global Health challenges such as emerging infectious diseases (e.g. COVID-19), antimicrobial resistance, inequalities in access to (basic) healthcare, and the lack of financing and collaboration.

Global Health and the broader One Health approach bridge the current Public Health challenges and the increasing Planetary Health threats. An increasing number of different Global developments such as among other topics ageing of population, climate change and socioeconomic differences, require a proactive bi-directional collaboration between the low- and middle-income and high-income countries.

The symposium will focus on how to anticipate future health, societal and economic impact of One-Health and broader Planetary Health risks. How can we accelerate bi-directional public-private collaboration on knowledge (science and education), policy-development and entrepreneurship?

Date & time: Thursday September 21st from 12.00 – 18.00 hrs.

Location: UMCG (Rode Zaal) in Groningen.
